I have had this demon seed from hades for two weeks now. I bought it during a state of delusional thinking. I was starving to death, going through nicotine withdrawal, trying to lose weight so that I wouldn't throw my arm out of socket trying to wipe my own butt.
I remember bike riding fondly. Thought oh there is nothing to it. My 52 year old thighs and smokers lungs did not need an appearance on Maury to prove that was a lie.

Read reviews. Bought this 2 weeks ago took it straight to the bike shop and had the look over an tween things. I am 5'11 300 lbs. It rides great, very sturdy, I feel like I did when I road when I was a kid. I can go over bumps, around turns with NO problems. I can pedal standing up like when I was a kid with out the worry of something breaking. Best bike I have bought in a long time. Only draw back you may probably need to buy a better padded seat.

Never ridden a better bike!

No, literally. There are thousands of bikes out there that are nicer than this one, but I have never had the luxury of riding one. I have never owned a bike nicer than this one, and I am incredibly pleased with the results. It handles my 6 mile commute perfectly every day, and every night. The gears needed a little indexing, as the rear derailleur’s Limited screws were way off. Got that fixed up, and she shifts as smoothly as a shimano should!! Best $180 I’ve spent In a long while!!

I purchased this bike online and had it assembled by a professional bike shop. I was really impressed by how it turned out. My daughter picked this bike out of a line of them in the store (because of the color). I was worried that it would be a piece of junk but it turned out to be a very decent little bike. The rear ended has no suspension and drops like a rock, but other than that, this is an awesome bike for riding short distances on and off road.

We bought bikes for the 1st time in 20 years. We didn't want to invest too much in them because we weren't sure how much we would ride. We have had them 1 week and have ridden about 35 miles so far and we love them. We replaced the seats - they are quite hard - but otherwise they are perfect for what we want to do!!

Low price, overall great bike!

I bought this bike for my five-year-old and spent about $40 on it. The reason I give it a five star rating is mainly due to the low price and the quality of it. Given time I’m not sure if that will change but for now it’s a great buy.

Bought as a Christmas gift for my nephew. 16 inch bike isn't much bigger than the 12 inch bike. Nice bike just too small. Had to run out and purchase an 18 bike on Dec 24th.

Bought the cruiser to get some exercise as I can't walk much of any distance. Was afraid a regular bike would be a problem because of my back. I can ride this for miles without stress and get some fresh air doing it. I am 74

It is a fun way to transport yourself and get some exercise when a two wheeler is no longer an option. Shortcomings are:
- going uphill on an asphalt road makes the front wheel slip making it necessary to get off and push the thing.
- I have not yet found a way to store my cane, let alone a pick-nick or even my camera making the Mobo less useful as a fun vehicle.

Good price and quality!

I was very happy with the price I paid and shipping to house. Much cheaper than even Wal-mart. It allowed me to get my Christmas presents without my daughter seeing it. Assembly really wasn't bad. I just ran into one snag; I needed an allen wrench of a fairly large size and we didn't have one, so we needed to make a trip to pick one up. Would have been nice if the design stuck to the most common tools as it did for my sons bike. My daughter was very excited.

I bought one about 3 weeks ago when first available at Academy. I find that it is quite nice to ride, and eliminates the bumps I used to be annoyed at - both the handlebars and the seat. I have ordered a handlebar post extension and look forward to riding in a more upright position. Overall - a joy to ride and the wider tires prevent digging into sand when I do get off pavement.
I really like the clearance between front of the pedal at its most forward position and the back of the tire as
... you turn. This one is engineered so as to not knock my foot off the pedal if I turn while pedaling. well designed overall - and I couldn't detect any areas to suggest improvements.
excellent bicycle. definitely have recommended to friends. now looking at getting a similar model for my wife.

Bought this bike because I'm 6' 6". It has a taller frame. It rides good and so far seems to be a quality bike for the money! I did also have to adjust the brakes and gears just a little. Other than that, can't go wrong with this GMC bike from Academy.

Great bike at a great price. Only needed to adjust the gears as they slipped a little at low gear.

4.5 Great casual bike

I was looking for a comfortable bike that had riser handlebars for casual riding. I got all of that and more. I haven't taken it out on any long rides, just around the neighborhood and biking parks. I love the colors. The mint and the white look so much better than in the photo online. The reason for 4.5 instead of 5 stars is due to the fact that 1) sticker emblems were already placed on the bike and got damaged during shipping (more of an annoyance for someone who is slightly OCD and wants
... things to look nice and smooth) and 2) the directions and pictures in the manual are terrible and definitely need to be revised (Luckily I didn't really need them but I wouldn't recommend first-time bike builders to try it out without some knowledge of brake systems). So overall very pleased with this purchase and the issues I have can easily be remedied, I'm just being picking. And only time will tell how this bike holds up over time.

Best purchase ever!

Nice Bike!

I am a big guy. 6’2” 285lbs. I’ve owned the “big name” bikes and none held up to my weight. I took a shot in the dark and bought this bike made by Kent. It doesn’t have any suspension really, or disc brakes, but I’m a recreational rider so there not needed and this bike has held up when the $1200 bikes failed. The brakes works just fine after some fine tuning. I did change the brake pads and that helped tremendously and was a cheap upgrade. I also changed out both tubes for some higher end ones
... which was a lil bit pricey but well worth it. The stock ones would go flat often and one blew out in a very inconvenient place (had to walk and carry bike about 3 miles back to car, then went straight to a bike shop for new tubes lol) I did some research and discovered Kent has been making bikes a lot longer than the others that are priced 6 x’s higher that I thought would be better because that is the direction I went from so called experienced riders. I have zero complaints on this bike other than I should take more time to ride.

Great bike with some great features

I am 6'4" 220 this is a great fit bike I wish frame was one size up but for the price and features no problem I will put my bike seat higher

Bike arrived quickly, some of the packing failed, other than sticker on crank being scratched, no damage. I am 5' 10" and this bike is close to being too big. I like the benefit of the larger tire though. First bike in 25 years, so my first ride was only 1 mile round trip, did feel great overall. might look for a better feeling seat. Not lot of places to bolt on accessories the tubing is over sized and handle bars are narrow.
Smooth shifting and even braking right out of the box.

We bought this for our 9 yr old daughter who was a new rider, and she is fast becoming an expert. Of course it was the most expensive ride in her size at the store, but YOLO right? There is a learning curve here with the gears, but this is to be expected. The brakes and gears were all out of whack when we got it home...probably from being handled by other Academy patrons. The Shimano hardware is very nice for a youth-ish bike, and was relatively easy to adjust. Chalk this one up as a parental
... win. YMMV, but we have one very happy 3rd-grader.

We bought this bike as a 9th birthday present for our daughter - she is a very novice bike rider having just learned two wheels on her brothers bike last fall. She is in that weird age/bike-size between 20" and 24" (since 22" bikes are apparently no longer made). She liked this one the best out all the 24" bikes she saw. She is 50-1/4" tall, and with the seat slammed all the way down, probably the very minimum height that could safely ride this bike. She rides in a nice upright position with
... very slight elbow bend to reach handle bars. Since it is a hybrid there are a few things that are really nice about it. The weight is much lighter than a "Mountain" bike. She liked the thinner tires - less work to ride too. The drop on the frame (stand over height) fit her well - she was able to straddle the frame easily - an issue with a couple she tried.The bike she learned on had coaster brakes, so we were worried how she would adjust to hand brakes - it never became an issue before she had it figured out. We would have liked a 7 speed (single sprocket up front), but during the first ride she already had the shifting somewhat figured out. She liked the way the grips felt - she really did not like the grips, or handle bars, on the "Cruiser" bikes. I agree, she really struggled in the store with the handle bars and hand positioning on the cruiser bikes. Overall, mom, dad, and daughter are really happy with the choice - nothing but smiles while she was riding.

Great beginner bike! Handlebar height is perfect.

I love this bike. I'm a beginner and I use it in parks, campsite trails and love it! The gears change easily when I need them to help me out getting up hills. I'm not a hard core mountain biker - I like it for cardio and leisure riding and it's perfect. I had another hybrid bike first that I didn't enjoy near as much. The handlebars are slightly higher and that enabled me to sit a bit more comfortable. Not upright like a beach cruiser but not in a constant strain like a street bike so it is
... perfect for someone out of shape or a beginner.

I recently bought this from our local Academy as an adult wanting to get back into exercise. It fills the bill nicely, as well as only having seven gears - which is what I wanted; I don't need a bike with 21 gears, and 98% of them seem to have 21 nowadays. As far as a previous reviewer's remarks regarding the front wheel being too close to one's feet during a turn, I am an average-sized woman with size 8.5 feet. The front wheel comes nowhere near my feet, nor does it ever unless the front wheel
... is literally at right angles with the rest of the bike. I don't think that's ever going to happen in motion, and if it does I will have bigger problems to worry about ;) This is a nice little bike for just hacking around and enjoying oneself.

Great Buy.
